Halfling
Referred to as Smallfoots by the Pale Elves, Halflings are often aloof, content running farms or small shops in towns. Halflings dislike the bustle of large cities and aren't fans of the lack of society in nature, preferring small time life that sits in the middle. However, Halflings are also known as brutal fighters and have a reputation for being deadly warriors when it comes to actual warfare.

It's known they fought against the Pale Elves and were one of the first to openly rebel against them in the south. It's also known in modern times they've fought off Dragon hordes from the Nightlands, and then have later hosted individuals escaping the Nightlands.
